not me... i love the snow
Thought my squirter nozzles freezing up was bad..
I love ice and snow, it makes things look sooo different.
A long time ago, back home, it snowed an awful lot and the whole place looked totally transformed. I was only around 12 at the time, but can remeber it all well. Got a lot of photos taken at parks and stuff with snow hanging from the trees. It doesnt snow like that much near the sea! Will always remeber a car down my road too, it was covered in snow - look like a snow drift and the only bits of the car you could see where the wing mirrors and the front plate. Don't remeber the first bit, but the end bit said "BOO". hehe.

Pic from outside my grand-parents house - In South Spain (near Malaga) .
She said the locals were going crazy, they'd never seen snow there before!!

I envy their view, Blu73, that is truly beautiful.
So that's where the de-icer MG pic comes from! It's cool stuff.

Yeh, I envy them too, never been there. lol
If it helps they had to spend £40k building a wall to hold the mountain it on up. They came to england a while back and when they got home, there had been the worst rain on record. Their garden and pool had disappeared down the hill and the house was overhanging the edge!!
Its for sale if you want it. lol
Never been there? with that view?
Are you the mad?
I'd be there like a shot - looks absolutely lush. Shame about the landslides though...

It has been suggested yes.
I haven't been there for a few reasons. For one, i don't go on aeroplanes so i'd have to get a ferry and drive which would take ages. I'd have to go when my grandad is not there, we don't get on (don't ask me why, he has some problem with me that he doesn't wanna sort out?!?!?). On top of all that, i'm one of those people that feels no desire to go abroad to go on holiday, theres 1000's of places in the UK that look amazing too.
